Imagine this match come true!
With Shawn Michaels making into this list for the fourth time, you probably have an idea by now of how amazing the former WWE World Champion was inside the ring and trust me, every time Michaels stepped inside the squared circle he always lived up to his hype and expectations and eventually went on to prove his worth, much like WWE Champion AJ Styles.
